About this Item
Description:
50,[28]pp. (lacks final two leaves of text, supplied in expert facsimile), plus folding table. Quarto. Half morocco and marbled boards. Titlepage foxed, text evenly tanned. Very good. The first Hartford printing of this important report by a committee consisting of Madison, Hamilton, and Oliver Ellsworth, issued the same year as the Philadelphia first printing. The report deals with raising national revenue and other important issues facing the new nation. Appended are some relevant state papers: a letter from Franklin and his treaty of Vergennes; Adams' contract with the Netherlands regarding loans; and material relating to the Newburgh Address, including the petition of the officers, extracts from Washington's reply, and related resolutions of Congress. The final unpaginated thirty-one pages of this edition relate specifically to receipts and expenditures of Connecticut, with most of the text a town-by-town listing of balances due the national treasury from various Connecticut localities. The final three pages of that section are lacking from this copy, supplied in facsimile. HOWES A76, "aa." EVANS 18226. ESTC W15154. REESE, FEDERAL HUNDRED 1 (ref). Seller Inventory # WRCAM33231
